Someone's Opinion of You does not have to become your reality

Are you lazy, hopeless, timid, unlucky, untidy, mediocre, ordinary, slow in learning etc?

If you should have any negative beliefs about yourself, you got to start asking, who told you that?

One of the top motivation speakers, Les Brown was diagnosed to be mentally retarded when he was young. He was removed from the 5th grade and put into the 4th grade and proceeded on in life slower than "usual".

He walked into a classroom one day and was asked by the teacher to go to the board. Les Brown refused and told the teacher that he couldn't do it becasue he was mentally retarded. The teacher looked at him in the eye and said, "Don't ever say that again young man, Someone's Opinion of you does not have to become your reality."

That was a turning point in his life.
